Rights advocates in the United States are urging President Joe Biden to end his administration’s “complicity” in Israeli rights abuses after key members of Israel’s government backed the idea of pushing Palestinians out of Gaza.
Far-right Israeli ministers Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich said this week that Israel should “encourage emigration” from the coastal enclave, home to an estimated 2.3 million Palestinians.
“If there are 100,000 or 200,000 Arabs in Gaza and not two million Arabs, the entire discussion on the day after [the war ends] will be totally different,” Smotrich said on Sunday, calling for the “voluntary migration” of Palestinians.
A day later, Ben-Gvir, who oversees national security, made a similar appeal, saying it was “a correct, just, moral and humane solution”, Israeli media outlets reported.
I’m confused. Isn’t Israel the one dropping the bombs?
Hamas is still lobbing missiles at Israel daily, and don’t forget, holding quite a few hostages. Like I said, I wonder how many Palestinians Hamas is willing to sacrafice.
You totally avoided my question. Who is bombing Gaza? Because I’m pretty fucking sure it isn’t Hamas
Ah, I see. Someone incapable of nuance. I’ll just block and move on. It’s like arguing with a kitchen table.
My man is so nuanced he can blame Hamas for the actions of Israel and can see how up is actually just the same as down if you’re all smart and nuanced about it
